WELLINGTON NOTES.
(By
“Lorgnette.”)
WELLINGTON, June 14. The J. C. Williamson pantomime “Sleeping Beauty” will open its New Zealand tour at the Grand Opera House on Monday evening next. This season’s production’ is said to -excel all previous pantomimes in regard to artists, costumes, scenery, and novelties. The principal “boy” will be played by Miss Winifred Roma, whilst the principal girl will be Miss F. Eve Lynn, an artist whom the firm has been endeavouring for the past five years to secure. She has been a headliner on Broadway, Nev/ York, for quite a long time. The “dame” will be played by Marriott Edgar, and will be well supported by George Welch. Miss Maggie Dickinson and Sydney Yates are the principal dancers. All the features and qualities that go towards making the success of a costume comedy company are possessed by the “Dandies of 1920,” and it is fully exemplified by the large audiences which witness each performance in the Town Hall Concert Chamber. The combination is a bright and clever one, being especially strong in singing and comedy,
